Question: Problem 4 A cantilever spring ( Fig . 3 - 4 4 ) is subject to fluctuating loading with F m a x = 2

Problem 4
A cantilever spring (Fig.3-44) is subject to fluctuating loading with Fmax=222N and Fmin=111N. The spring is made from heat-treated steel with a hardness of 390 Bhn and the spring's surface is ground. The theoretical stress concentration for bending is Kt=1.5 at the support. Using the Goodman criterion to evaluate failure, will the spring fail in fatigue if cycled for 107 cycles. Also, what is the factor of safety?
